Jason Statham says that a sequel to Fox's The Transporter is in development. "I'm doing another movie with Luc Besson. I'm doing another Transporter movie and that's late spring. They're writing it now," he says.
He added that the first film's director, Corey Yuen, will be back. "I'm very thrilled about the prospect of what we're going to get up to."
The Transporter made $25.3 million in North America last year.

For those of you who actually saw the first one and like it (I loved it) there's gonna be a sequel.

No it did not. I though the movie was awesome, and it was better than the first one. It already set the new Labor Day record. It did better than expected, and nearly outgrossed the first one.
i think Statham is totally underrated as an action hero, hes awsome

The first one sucked in terms of story and such...but the fighting was cool. The action was cool enough to keep me satisfied. I find the characters to be so undeveloped and the story to be very boring. But, like I said...action. For me there was far too much blatant "I'm Jason Statham. Look at me! My shirt is off!". They seemed to be trying to appeal to the female audience with that and the male audience with the action. They forgot to actually try to make it good though.

Anybody else catch this? Alison and I saw it this afternoon. She wasn't too hot on it, but I loved it. Probably the best action flick I've seen in a long time, and I'm normally not a fan of the genre.
With some of the most INSANE and creative fight choreography this side of Yuen Woo Ping, it also had some GREAT shoot 'em up scenes. My only real gripe, aside from some goofy, macho dialogue from the villains, was the supposed need for a fight every 5 minutes. A little heavy on the fisticuffs, but considering it actually had a coherent, detailed, and smart plot with an uber-cool female assassin, I'll let it pass.
Definately better than the original, it's own-worthy, IMO.
